gang bases+gang limit
|
let's start saying that the only base where ppl raid is avantgarde (old bh location). these new bases are supposed to limit running since u cant escape from the base if uve recently been hit, but they do the EXACT OPPOSITE. in fact, it is extremely easy to run around the base in circles and almost never get hit, or even from level to level back and foward abusing the fact that there is no door to open. raiding has become a run around the base, chasing ppl who r at low hp and eat donuts/cookies to heal and wait for reinforcments. a decent and enjoyable raid only occurs when there are huge numbers raiding (this will happen once every 2-3weeks..ill explain why in the next paragraph). would it not be a good idea to put the old bh base (the most recent one, without most of the furniture and the wall left of right entrance that encouraged door laming) back to it's place? it had sewers (fundamental for raids), elevator system and doors which you had to open (therefore losing time) in order to escape. the BH base was great for raids with few ppl (2v2, 3v3 or so) but even raids with various gangs, even thanks to the various levels accessible with the elevator.
the gang limit is also a large problem. with only 15 players it is impossible to cover all time zones effectively and it ALWAYS occurs that there is a gang with way more online members than the others. this is why no large raids occur, and a raids will last 20-30minutes TOPS, whilst before the new gang system was released almost every raid would last over an hour and there would be raids lasting even 3-4hours at times.
larger gang numbers, longer raids and less running around bases in circles can easily be obtained by changing avantgarde back to BH base and increasing the gang limit to 25-30 |
